Just wondering how to deal with regionalised labels & validation in a custom controller
[Required(ErrorMessage = "City is required")]
[Display(Name = "City*")]
public string City { get; set; }
How can I translate the Name and ErrorMessage with the DictionaryItems in my Custom Controller?
umbraco.library.GetDictionaryItem("City") ain't working... umbraco.library.GetDictionaryItem(“City”); either
uQuery.GetDictionaryItem("Key", "FallbackValue", languageId)
This gives me "cannot resolve symbol GetDictionaryItem"
If this inside an project you need to add reference to the umbraco.dll
I have referenced the umbraco.dll, but I'm using the dataannotions in a seperate model class, and I'm using that model in my controller. I didn't describe the issue correctly in my initial question I think.
Aha, got it;
I have extended the required attribute on my project so that it grabs the error message from the dictionary:
Add new Item >> new class >> LocalizedRequiredAttribute.cs
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using System.Web.Mvc;
namespace xxx.Website
{
public class LocalizedRequiredAttribute : RequiredAttribute, IClientValidatable
public override string FormatErrorMessage(string name)
return umbraco.library.GetDictionaryItem(this.ErrorMessage);
}
public IEnumerable GetClientValidationRules(ModelMetadata metadata, ControllerContext context)
yield return new ModelClientValidationRule
// format the error message to include the property's display name.
ErrorMessage = FormatErrorMessage(metadata.DisplayName),
// uses the required validation type.
ValidationType = "required"
};
Then, on my model I just decorate the error message:
[LocalizedRequired(ErrorMessage = "XXXRequired")]
This solution doesn't seem to be working in later versions of Umbraco 7.1.*, 7.2.*.
Has anyone come across this and have any solutions?
